Lok Sabha Elections: Like she had denied joining the Congress, Sapna Chaudhary rejected the suggestion that she had joined the BJP.

Sapna Chaudhary accompanied the BJP's Manoj Tiwari at a roadshow in Delhi.

New Delhi:

Actor-dancer Sapna Chaudhary was a surprise presence next to the BJP's Manoj Tiwari as he went in a big roadshow to file his nomination to contest from North East Delhi in the national election. Weeks ago, the buzz was that Sapna Chaudhary would join the Congress.

"I have not joined the party (BJP), I'm here because Manoj Tiwari ji is a good friend of mine," Sapna Chaudhary told reporters.

Manoj Tiwari, who is the Delhi BJP chief, will face his Congress counterpart Sheila Dikshit in North East Delhi.

Last month, she generated much news as her photo with Congress's Priyanka Gandhi Vadra circulated on social media. There was also talk about the Congress fielding her as its candidate from Uttar Pradesh's Mathura, against the BJP's Hema Malini.

Sapna Chaudhary then called a press conference and denied all speculation of joining the Congress, calling the photo an old one. She also said she had met Priyanka Gandhi several times and though she was "very good", she had no plans of campaigning for the party.
